Find out about the great buckwheats, California fuchsias, other drought-tolerant natives that happily provide a bevy of blooms all through the hot, dry summer and on into the fall. See how to transition seamlessly from the abundance of spring into an equally spectacular flowering towards the middle and end of the year.
